Windows XP task bar appearance changed....

[Guest]

After restarting my computer the taskbar/start menu appearance changed it
looks like windows 98 or windows classic. I tried going to properties, themes
and changing it but there is no option there anymore. The drop down menu for
windows & buttons only says windows classic now. Any idea how it could of
been changed or deleted? I ran many virus scanners and none of them found any
virus. Please help!

The Classic look is change to the XP look by right clicking on the Start
button, selecting the Start Menu tab, and clicking on the Start menu radio
button just to the left of the Customize button in the lower portion of the
Start Menu tab. The lower button is what puts you into Classic mode.

Colin I tried that but it wouldn't change anything at all.

I did however find the problem before seeing these replies. The file
luna.msstyle was in the wrong location once I put it back into the luna
folder the option for "windows xp" in the drop down menu under the appearance
tab came back. Thanks for the replies
